Yup...mine get a pat down before coming inside. It's not too bad, but the sticks, fuzzy leaves, stickery seeds, and such can hide in a long coat sometimes. I must admit to a little surprise that a Shih Tzu isn't a foliage collector, assuming long coat. My pseudo-pup Shih Tzu swept my yard plenty of times when staying at my house. She was an ex-show dog at 8 months old and definitely a gorgeous long coat. |
